Must win (and Watson needs to be markedly better).
Inactives will be out soon
Zac Jackson

22s
James Hudson (ankle) inactive. Ty Nsekhe active as the emergency tackle. Emerson the obvious announced starter with Newsome out; Mitchell and Ford are the next corners up.
Denico Autry is active for them .. that's big
I agree a must win game with 2 tough teams to play in the next 2 weeks.
This game may be career defining for the Browns head coach.
perfect weather, bad pass defense .. Watson has no excuse to have a bad day
Yeah we need this badly, after such a poor performance on Monday.
why bring it out? so dumb
Watson is playing,
we're underway
man, Watson is in his own head lol
We just start off throwing
What was Elijah Moore doing there
Great play by Wally
out of a ack,
got the completion
Such stupid playcalling already
hmm, our OLine is not looking like a strength for us any longer
we call plays like its a circus
Our Line looking confused
Hunt in, expect a throw.
big dl blits 3rd and 6
Njoku is such a bust. Can’t believe how much we pay him for what we give him
Least we haven't turned it over yet....yet lol
we've run that play before lol
big on that ,
that the OL all 3 on that screen avoided going downfield early
Lol well that sucked with Goodwin
what is this play calling
Goodwin does not belong on this team. He does nothing. Cut him and bring up Watkins
Jesus...Watson isn't a threat to run anymore
what in the HELL is this play calling
Watson looks slower than Brissett
I guess we did not see that QB sweep NOT work last week
Just really stupid playcalling. Just line the F up and impose your will
Least with Brissett he was money on those 4 and 1 QB keepers
Nobody gets to the 30 like this Browns Offense
now
when they get there,... @uicksand, but,
Nobody gets to the 30 like our Off. Coach. \0/
Jesus...Watson isn't a threat to run anymore
that’s a silly statement . His running is what won us game one
The playcalling wasn't bad, the execution was ok,
hey, they got points out of a Coach whose middle name is negative 3 points in the first half.
Freak False start uncalled
on the r guard
Just really stupid playcalling. Just line the F up and impose your will
Normally I never respond to the game during the game...but Lead said it best, STUPID PLAY CALLING...
...Stefanski starts out blowing a scoring opportunity with two stupid play calls in a row...reverse and QB run...
Message sent to Titans...the Browns can't run the ball so Stefanski is going to try to "trick you Titans".
It looks like the offense is going to struggle thus far
It looks like the offense is going to struggle thus far
Thought Watson looked good. He's made plays and quick decisions
Just really stupid playcalling. Just line the F up and impose your will
Normally I never respond to the game during the game...but Lead said...Stefanski starts out blowing a scoring opportunity with two stupid play calls in a row...reverse and QB run...
Message sent to Titans...the Browns can't run the ball. their run d had/ been as good as yours
our run game ain't it right now
boy oh boy Watson has some happy feet
Situational playcalling. We suck at it
Were going to lose the battle of
better punter results
freaking unspecial teams
Situational playcalling. We suck at it
Yes, Stefanski does
Bubbas unit might be the worst we’ve had in 20 years. They just aren’t consistent
our run game ain't it right now
the Titan run D is Lauded,
finding what works against will be a challenge
our D might have to win this one
Boy, it’s really beginning to look like this is the real DW and his good years in Texas were the fluke. The browns bought fools gold.
Man schwartz has made such a big difference. We need that upgrade on offense
Tenn is a carbon copy of the Browns. Their D is stout and whatever drive we can mount on them.. take the points because they will be hard to come by.
Boy, it’s really beginning to look like this is the real DW and his good years in Texas were the fluke. The browns bought fools gold.
You mean him going 6/7. Lol. Was a superstar in college and nfl until stefanski got him. Don’t think that’s a coincidence
Ok, @uarterback sneak play one????? anybody?
I worry about this series here
We should be screens, slants, short passing and north/south running. Instead of whatever this bs
who is this lady talking? She's awful
handoff pitch Moore, one yard...
we can't get anything on the ground
Yeah let’s throw a pitch 6 yards deep backed up on our goal line.
Cooper thirteen, late developing,
@uarterack holding the ball way too long
another completion,
ball held too long again
they are just sitting on everything short
well, it was just a matter of time
Got the throw out @uickly, and
Elijah Moore fumbled on the trying to fall out of bounds
Tenn in the red zone
Yeah Moore hasn't looked as advertised
Why didn't delpit jump on that?
Why didnt the D pounce on the ball
Fall on the bball idiot. Walker is stupid
That should have our all if walker didn’t do what he does and suck
I see stefanski has almost completely abandoned the running game now, so nothing new
Moore is quickly resembling Devone Bess
3rd and seventeen after Myles = tackle for loss
Myles forced fumble fell on by D Henry
3rd and seventeen end of @uarter one, at the Browns 22 ish yard line
after the fumble where Bunting took the ball out of the hands of Moore who was standing after a ccatch trying to get out of bound
D needs to score. We won’t win this dinking and dunking with 4. SMH the offense fell off a cliff when Chubb went down.
This defense is so well coached
Wow that might be the worst commercial I’ve ever seen
SO you have a D that is playing balls out every game.. and the offense stuck in the mud... I wonder who the coach is??
negative yardage screen, D Ward tackle for loss on Okwunkwu,
FG try = good , 3 to 3 score.
...
Browns Offense, oh my, Just .... oh if only they were productive.
I think for giggles let Schwartz call plays on offense too
Remember we had posters telling us there was nothing wrong with Joe Woods?
Play fake for Njoku to get 8,
everything is literally a one yard pass
Run for Hunt
BIG HOLE got 2 and a first down
we don't pass past 5 yards
everything is literally a one yard pass
This is what I wanted.
Get Watson in rhythm. Give him some moderately easy passes, and get him going.
throw to Amari for 6,
nothing looks very good on O
... Wally held too long, it's got to be first throw or nothing.
Wills got handled there lol
it's so hard when we can't run or pass
P interference on Murphy Bunting on Cooper
new downs at the midfield.
Back in day Watson looked so quick, was playing way faster than his 40 time. Now he looks god awful
Well, that was just stupid, idiotic, and moronic,.
man,
WALLY = the worst play of all time
Lol that sexual predator sure is a big upgrade over baker lolol
Only thing worse is our oline. They all suck
what in the world is this game
Sounds like DTR might be coming in.
Wills has to go. Dude is the worst
Nick Harris in motion lmao
OMG.. can we please run the ball
I don’t think our receivers are getting open
P interference def.
and rouging the thrower def.
dang
Watson bad decision making will cost this drive maybe game
230 million...230 million....
Bitinio had to help Wills there, Wills keeps getting jolted back
Stefanski is the qorst play caller i have ever seen. Empty backfield modt of the game and completely abandoned the running game
Direct snap to harrison Bryant..well that's new
Wills with a good block there
Why is Stefanski allergic to running the ball
TD Foird!
Nice play all around.
Taki taki plays offense now lol
Our new kicker is pretty solid, thank God.
Love the Television miscue
Sione Taki Taki Touchdown
actually Jerome Ford
Why is Stefanski allergic to running the ball
Because he thinks he is smartwe than everyone else.
With the amount of hits Watson takes (often his own fault as well) I can't see him lasting all year
Need another stop by defense and another score
Why is Stefanski allergic to running the ball
ALthough we scored.. that 5 wide stuff will come back to get us later... Stefanski has to establish the run...
117-2 in net yardage. Need to keep going so a fluke play doesn't kill us.
Hopefully that gives us some momentum offensively, considering Watson nearly killed that whole drive with that bone head toss behind the LOS. But least he kept with it.
Why is Stefanski allergic to running the ball
Trying to fix his shiny new toy?
It's going to take 24 points to win this
Trying to figure you why Watson rolls left and then has to spin in a circle to get set. Just an awful choice to scramble left for him.
That play is what gets us every game. That’s the play Pitt scored on last week
the first holding call of the year
oh my
Nice to hear "Holding 71", and it's not Willis.
Yeah that will be the turning point
and then the PI against the Browns a 26 yard penalty
Ugh - 3&12 - 30 yard penalty. Idiot.
Calm down you’re starting to hurt the team
Smart hard count on Tannehill.
2 offsides and a d pi against the d in the last 4 play
That's a couple of ways to make up for dumb penalties. Good D.
This might be my favorite defense since 99
3rd and eleven
4th and even more after a shared sack by Ogbo and Myles
a punt, and a commercial break
This defense is for real!
Tennessee: 13 total net yards.
One play in the red zone all season and the very next play tackle for loss and took them out of the red zone lol
This D will keep us in games. Now the O needs to score more.
They are stupid good. Henry is going to have his worst ever day as a pro if this continues
This D will keep us in games. Now the O needs to score more.
Stupid dumb play not withstanding DW has played better
If our offense could improve to just mediocre and stop giving away points, we will win games.
short gain on a run, ... continued challenge but good to not give up on the Run.
What did that ref think he saw?
Cooper is out here running a WR clinic
He was not even close to being out of bounds!!
That’s a freakigg ‘n TD. Trash refs
What an awful call. He would have neeeded size 60 shoes to have been out of bounds.
Refs are going to need some protection after those 2 calls. So unbelievably bad. When is the NFL going to allow a play to be the play and not stopped by a bad ref call?
No PI? Refs need to stop bailing out the titans trash secondary
Calls like that cost games and refs should be fined, especially when you’re that close to it
they should fine those refs for that.
Well, they should have given the Browns at least to the 26 on the Amari catch,
How can that not be allowed as a challenge and TD? SO SO bad.
Cooper is out here running a WR clinic
He does it every single game
They had a chance to make a right call on the PI the next play to make up for the error and didn’t
That's ref is clearly paid off, no other reason to think since he was in bounds by over a foot and the ref was right there.
Ford broke 3 tackles to gain 3 yards
May as well leave the offense out there and go for it on 4th and 4
Steratore "defending" the out of bounds call... "Official lost focus operating on presumption he stepped out of bounds making an illegal 1st to touch..." Call it out for what it was. BAD call not corrected.
D Hop with a 53 yarder. Not his fault he was putting up 3 instead of a PAT.
FG good, Oh my, ... have to take a double take look at the sideline
are we sure that that is 'negative 3 points in the first half' Stefanski over there??
Enough talk about this “top 3” offensive line.
They’ve been in DW face all day.
A defensive score by our D would be nice here
Steratore "defending" the out of bounds call... "Official lost focus operating on presumption he stepped out of bounds making an illegal 1st to touch..." Call it out for what it was. BAD call not corrected.
Aren't they told if in doubt let it play out and replay can fix it?
Emerson is becoming toast
Why isn’t ward on Hopkins
They’ll give them this but miss our blatant TD
He dragged hi toe through the white, that is not in, not hard to see.
Gene Saratore was full of crap!!..that right foot dragged out of bounds
That ref they consult with should go away. You suck at your job
"I think I saw a blade of grass move ....."
Ridiculous.
Good non call by the replay official.
they're starting to double Garrett
Emerson sucks. Stop putting him on Hopkins
Emerson will lose us this game
Emerson started to smell a bit singed...Seriously - they will keep after Emerson all day with Hopkins just catching everything thrown at him.
Defense starting to crack
Owusu Koromoah made the tackle on 3rd, 4th and 4.
Just stupid. They are going to kill us in the second half
their WRs are just killing us
How did Thornhill miss knocking that down? Wow.
we're only gonna be up 3 aren't we
These defenders need to work on the juggs
Miami is the class of nfl right now
Really surprised they didn't try a single jump ball to Hopkins in that serues.
Myles!!!!!
Is anybody still thinking Myles Garrett is just padding stats?
Myles this year is a different vibe. He’s got help and he knows it. He just pins his ears back and goes
Myles - clinic on the bull rush.
Schwartz calling the time out to get the guys in position. Damn I love this guy.
Myles a sack after the ten
took a completion out of the hands of a Browns defender to the ten yard line
and
after both teams called consecutive time outs
Myles now 2 and a half sacks on the day to run out the final seven seconds 0 points on the tenne drive.
Halftime
Myles with 3 tackles. 2.5 sacks, and 1 forced fumble.
Henry with -7 yards rushing
jc
Offense is looking a lot more composed this week. Watson having a better game. Defense is scary as F. Gotta love it. Let's go Browns!
Greta eye to end the half
Watson shgould be somewhere aroiund 16-19 for 200+ yards and 2 TD ...... but ... incompetent official.
I know ... that horrible out of bounds call was inept
at least one of Myles 3 regular tackles was a TFL, the one right before the forced fumble.
Defense needs one huge play to end this game
I need to see more confidence out of DW and the O to feel good about them. With this D, average O play can take us deep into the playoffs.
that's their adjustment with Hopkins in the backfield
that tackle by jok
radio trying to say edarius Smith
Replace him. He’s a horrible returner
Replace him. He’s a horrible returner
Agreed.
DPJ Noooooooo
what team is he playing for,
it's like he's trying to give them more opportuniites to force the fumble back there,
I'd inactive him next week, arrgh
we had something there to Hunt shoot
Ford getting some opportunities now.
a running game,
2 carries = seventeen in the last 4 play...
well, there ya go the ... 4th and 2 at midfield.
d holding on Murphy bunting covering Cooper,
new downs
Moore in the backfield aint it
Stop using Moore as a rb. Christ
Elijah Moore does not know how to run sweeps
Watson has to tuck the ball more
Good grief. Announcers are just brilliant. "Watson has been very decisive in his decision making..." Is Kamala calling the game?
I hope they get out of the next few plays
without messing up.
Try the FG on 2nd down???
Nice QB run for Watson.
Ford TD!!!
Now the Defense has to show up.
Now the Defense has to show up.
you mean stay where they are
Now the Defense has to show up.
have you been watching?
we could really use an interception here,
because
radio.
' The only scoring drive the titans had went negative nine yards.
thanks for calling out Jim Donovan
I'd prefer not to be dropping back 10 yards right now
Wills hurts more than he helps
screen
where all 3 OL wait at the line, will be recognizable in future weeks, teams will be prepared for it.
Pitch and catch DW to cooper
Giving credit on this drive. This is more like actual football play calling. Keep going!
Took a little time off the clock need to make , would have liked to have gotten one more minute off of that clock,
eleven seconds to go in the 3rd, after the Browns punt.
End of 3rd quarter, Browns on top 20 to 3.
our defense is so good right now
D is fierce today. FIERCE.
I swear every time they show Schwartz, it looks like he’s trying to hold back a Bond villain level grin and laugh
sack by Garrett at the one,
Tannehill going to have Myles in his nightmares
DPJ an accident waiting to happen on returns
like a child riding a motorcycle, scary.
DPJ an accident waiting to happen on returns
like a child riding a motorcycle, scary.
It happens. I trust him way more than Felton last season
Not to be negative, but the only thing the D is missing is turnover creation,
Kareem looks well rested.
Not to be negative, but the only thing the D is missing is turnover creation,
This is true. However it’s a good thing because the D isn’t on the field long enough to create turnovers. They end drives quickly
First down?
on 2 Kareem runs. 3rd and short,
the TE @uarterback sneak worked twice today on short yardage.
Right now; I cringe everytime I see Harrison Bryant on the field. He still hasn't won back anything after giving up a pick 6 against the Stoolers.
Wills is so weak in the run game
Cooper has drawn so many flags
D holding , automatic first down.
a great run , for 2 yards
If it ain’t a catch by cooper, it’s a penalty by the defense hahaha
our run game can't grind it
Yo why is Zach Wilson so trash
Moore has like 10 touches for 20 yards lol
Moore has been so unimpressive since he’s been here
I hate plays that are designed to go wide before they go North.
Coop gotta stay on his block longer
I was hoping for the QB sneak. Good job!
my gosh Teller got worked
What was that? Did that dude line up in the Browns backfield?
Our oline is really really weak at the point of attack . So much for Callahan being a magician
Coop! TD!
Nice read and throw. Been setting up all game
And all that freaking clock we chewed up!!!
The running Elf ain't nothing to ' with
The running Elf ain't nothing to ' with.

Miami with 49 points against Denver
Touchdown!!.. And here come the Cleveland Browns
This game is so refreshing compared to last week, thank God!
We needed a game like this after last week. This team showed up last week Pitt doesn’t even score
Watson is playing much better now. I hope the lights came on, confidence returned, or whatever is going on continues. And Cooper is our best WR by far.
Miami with 49 points against Denver
Denver heading for 0-3 ....

Miami with 49 points against Denver
Miami is the team to beat this year . They are explosive
Yep. And it’s important he had a good game against a solid defense as well. We’re gonna need this momentum going into the ravens game next Sunday
Y’all think Tua is legit if** he can stay healthy?
Yep. And it’s important he had a good game against a solid defense as well. We’re gonna need this momentum going into the ravens game next Sunday
That is the truth.. we gotta strap it up next week
I love Schwartz is staying aggressive. No prevent here
Good choice - get the 2nd team some reps in a no risk situation.
Come on Hopkins you need to come to cleveland
I like the call. Let Watson go out with a positive
Baltimore will win danger
Now this is the QB player expected. It’s one game but it’s good to see he’s still got it
DTR - DO NOT GET HURT IN A MEANINGLESS QUARTER.
Y’all think Tua is legit if** he can stay healthy?
Yes.
Now this is the QB player expected. It’s one game but it’s good to see he’s still got it
Agreed... this felt like vintage Watson... had one pretty bone head play, but other than that he was good today...
Great defense as well.. Garrett really showed up... great bounce back from the debacle that was Monday's game... we needed this... especially with the Ravens next week...
Indy has a puncher chance to upset balt,
For once as a fan, I have virtually no complaints from today's performance. This is the way you recover from some Monday night voodoo curse. Thanks Browns!
Awesome win! We dominated in all phases of the game! See y’all next game day!
Good win. Glad it seems to have started clicking for DW and Ski. This D is phenomenal. Without them, I think today would have been a huge L. Thanks Schwartz!
Gotta give some credit to Stefanski and co. for having these guys mentally ready today after last weeks shipshow.
Baltimore wins it. Indy is bad. We should bounce the ravens
Well hold on, Lamar with a dumb play
Damnit Indy, pick that off!!
Indy proving playing prevent does not work..ever
Wow that’s was just short
Dolphins just straight up murdering the Broncos
Damnit Indy, pick that off!!
I was amazed that the refs needed a review, and then it looked like they wanted to spot the ball like it was fumbled out of bounds. It was either a sack, or intentional grounding. He was out of teh tackle box, but did not have a receiver anywhere and it didn't get near the LOS. It's like the officials were trying to create a reason to whipe out that loss.
It’s pretty clear Brees is what made NO work and not Payton
So far today, games are either blowouts, or very tight.
I’m not sure Indy realizes this is OT
Wel, Indy just gave up this game.
The Raven and Colt are in overtime
Great game today. Best performance by DW in a Browns Uni. Good game called by KS. Can't say enough about the D.
Why is Indy running deep set, out of the shotgun, on 4th and 1?????
and one,
Indy loves kicking field goals gets the OT win in Baltimore.
